Chapter 21: The Black Gift


Inuyasha grinned. "Excellent,"

----

Today was October 28th, Kagome's birthday. Inuyasha and the entire gang planned a HUGE birthday party for his fiancée. However Kagome didn't know about the shindig that Inuyasha planned. She woke up on October 28th, Saturday morning, to her sleeping son. It was 7am and Kagome was wide awake. She jumped out of her bed and took a short shower.

Awkwardly, as she came out of the shower, she didn't see Muteki in his bed. She frowned but didn't worry all that much, the house was filled with family so either one of them had her son. She quickly slipped out of her silk robe and stepped into a floral mini skirt. She pulled on a pink sweater and yanked on her socks. She put on her SHAM slippers and walked into the bathroom to blow dry her hair.

After roughly blow drying her hair, she quietly stepped downstairs to find nobody there. She frowned as she stepped into the kitchen to find a very pregnant Rin eating breakfast.

"Ohayo Rin," Kagome smiled as she sat down. Rin squealed. "Happy birthday Kagome-chan!"

"Wai," Kagome grinned, "at least somebody remembers."

Rin pouted. "Of course! What did you expect from ME?"

"Where's Teki-chan and Inu-kun?" Kagome asked. She twirled on of her locks between her forefinger and middle finger.

"I have no idea, Inuyasha went to your room saying he wanted to take Teki so he wouldn't bug you."

Kagome frowned. "What?"

Rin grinned. "Isn't that sweet? Anyways, I love your wedding dress!"

Kagome smiled. "Isn't it a beaut? Too bad Inu-kun doesn't see it till our wedding."

Rin rolled her eyes, in obvious pleasure, "Of course, we can taunt him about your marvellous body every chance we get."

Kagome burst into laughter. "Does it really matter? He's already had a son with me."

Rin pouted. "Oh true…"

"So where are my two boys?"

Rin shrugged. "Sesshomaru disappeared too… I mean seriously, they never tell me anything!"

Kagome smiled. "Well it's Sesshy-kun, so what do you expect?" Rin giggled nodding in agreement. Kagome sighed as she sat down. Her fiancé and son totally disappeared on her birthday, she hasn't seen Inutaisho, Sesshomaru and Izayoi at all either…

'Odd,' she thought. "Wanna go hunt down our boys?"

Rin smiled, with an odd twinkle in her eyes. "Eat first, then we're going out shopping, THEN we can search for our boys. Riku and Muteki are with Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, their over protective fathers, we're good Kagome-chan!"

Kagome smiled and nodded as she nodded at the cook, who went to get her cereal. "True,"


"You think Rin is doing a good job in taking Kagome out of the house?" Izayoi asked as she watched her sons dress their sons.

"It's Rin mom," Sesshomaru rolled his eyes, "if it's anybody, Sango or Rin could get Kagome out of the house, using the damned excuse of shopping."

Inuyasha sniggered as he finished dressing his son and placed him on the floor. "But isn't that why we left your platinum on the table Sesshomaru?"

Sesshomaru scowled. "It's not fair that I leave my card!" He whined. Inutaisho raised a brow. "Is Sesshomaru whining?" He teased.

Sesshomaru snapped his mouth shut and finished dressing Riku before placing his son on the floor. The two cousins glanced at each other before running to the toys room.

"So what now?" Inuyasha asked.

"We have to wait for the others to come," Inutaisho murmured as he sat down on a chair. They were all in the back studio of the house. It was a recording studio, dance studio and even band practice studio all in one. Inuyasha thought it'd be 'cool' having one and it was REALLY big. Big enough to host Kagome's party in!

"They better get here fast," Inuyasha murmured as he walked to the recording booth to mess around with the buttons.


"So, did you send the gift?" Naraku asked his girlfriend as he rubbed his goatee. Kikyo sighed as she put her legs on his desk and folded her arms.

"Yes," She said, "but why?"

"But why what?" Naraku asked, raising an eyebrow. Kikyo brought her legs down and leaned forward in her seat.

"Why on bloody earth did you send Kagome's exengagement ring back to her?"

"Memories," he smirked, "I will have her back."

Kikyo rolled her eyes. "Why do you want Kagome when you have me?"

"Because," Naraku said darkly, "I loved her… I still do."

"And I love Inuyasha," Kikyo said sarcastically, "but he sees nothing but Kagome and she sees nothing but him and that little brat that's their son."

Naraku rolled his eyes. "You think I don't know that Kikyo?"

Kikyo looked taken back.

"Of course I know all that," Naraku said, a small smirk playing his lips, "but that's what makes the game of chess so interesting."

Kikyo looked blown away. "Chess? CHESS? How does chess connect to THIS?"

"You see," Naraku said as he pressed a button under his desk which made a huge white sheet fall from the ceiling and an overhead projector turn on. A picture of a chess board appeared on the white sheet.

"We are the black pawns, and Inuyasha is the white pawn. We are after his queen," Naraku said as he used his laptop mouse to point at the white queen, "and to destroy his team and win, we have to annihilate the king. The Queen however is stronger since she can move as many spaces and in any direction she wants whereas the King depends on her for his protection."

Kikyo stared at the chess board before blinking. "Uh… Chess was Kagome's "sport", never mine."

Naraku sighed. "That means if we get Kagome, than you can easily get Inuyasha."

"Why do I want Inuyasha when I have you?" Kikyo asked, a smile toying on her lips.

"When I get Kagome, you won't have me." Naraku said. Kikyo considered this and shrugged. "Ok, whatever, he's rich too."

"Shallow," Naraku spat.

"Well you ain't getting Kagome for her angelic personality are you?" Kikyo shot back. Naraku laughed. "No, her beauty."

"So choosing beauty over brains is shallow."

"True," Naraku nodded as he turned off his projector. "So Kikyo, my desk is empty and I have this fucking urge to fuck you."

Kikyo started unbuttoning her top. "Sure,"


It was now 6pm, and Rin finally decided to come home. Kagome's eyes bulged and she realized how Inuyasha felt when she goes shopping with no plan in mind. "Uh, Rin?" Kagome questioned.

"Oh it's Sesshomaru's card." Rin waved her hand as they pushed themselves into their limo. The bags were taking the majority of the space.

"You bought baby clothes when you're only a month pregnant." Kagome sweat dropped. Rin giggled. "So? I did all my shopping by my second week when I was pregnant with Riku."

Kagome laughed. "I did all my shopping in my 6th month with Muteki in my womb."

Rin sighed. "It's great eh? Being pregnant I mean. Men can't feel the joy of having a life growing inside of you. All they know is injecting you with their damned seeds."

Kagome coughed. "I teach history sweetie, not sex-ed."

Rin burst into laughter. "Yeah I know, but sex is a universal topic."

"Not in my books."

"Your books are all about wars and demons." Rin shot.

"Hey!" Kagome shouted.

"Unless there's the mating ritual of demons in your textbook, history doesn't interest me."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "You are sure damn horny."

"It comes naturally in pregnancy."

"I wasn't horny when I was pregnant." Kagome pointed out.

"You didn't have a horny husband around you when you were." Rin counter pointed outed.

Kagome and Rin laughed as they listened to music, the rest of the way home.


"The gate is opening!" Inuyasha said, referring to the huge iron gate at the foot of their driveway. There was a small television inside of the recording studio, which showed who was coming in. Sango, Miroku, Ayame, Kouga, Ginta Hakkaku, Yuka, Eri, Ayumi, Hojo, Hayabusa, Izayoi, Inutaisho, Korari, Souta, Shippo, Sesshomaru and Inuyasha were all hiding in abstract locations in that room. Muteki and Riku were sitting in the centre of the room.

Rin had smartly led Kagome to the recording studio.

"Why though?" Kagome asked.

"Because, I wanna see it!" Rin pouted.

Kagome rolled her eyes as the servants brought their stuff in. Rin and Kagome entered the room and the lights automatically flashed on. Kagome blinked a few times to see Riku and Muteki in the middle of the room.

"Baby?" She said to both of them. "What's up boys?"

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" They both shrieked as they latched onto either of her legs. Kagome grinned as she went to her knees and hugged them both before placing soft kisses on their cheeks.

"Arigatou sweeties,"

Before she even knew it, everybody jumped out of everywhere and all shrieked at the same time.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"

Kagome blinked several times as the tried to process what was happening. Finally her brain clicked and her face split into a huge grin.

"OH MY GOSH!" She screamed as she launched herself into her fiancé's arms, burying her face in his chest. Inuyasha grinned as he held onto her tightly.

"This is," She said after she pulled away form Inuyasha, "AMAZING!"

"Yeah well," Inuyasha smirked, "I planned it all."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "I'm sure you did,"

"He did." Korari assured. Kagome stared at her fiancé for the outmost amount of time before going up on her tiptoes. All the girls squealed as she pressed her lips against his. Inuyasha brought his arm around her waist and moved her to the dip position. They kissed for some time before they pulled away for air.

"Thanks," She said, slightly blushing. Inuyasha chuckled as he let her go and she stared at her surroundings.

"Damn, this place looks hot!" she said, staring at the balloons, streamers, confetti, and all the beautiful decoration everywhere.

"You planned all this?" she said, astonished, as she turned to her fiancé.

"The best for my Kago-chan," He winked at her. Kagome giggled. "Only because it's my birthday, I'll let that go."

Inuyasha chuckled as he led her towards a giant canvas. Kagome frowned. "Why is a canvas over here?"

"Well we hired a professional painter to paint our family but he cancelled, so we hid the cake behind our canvas."

Sesshomaru and Miroku moved the canvas to reveal a three part cake. Kagome's eyes bulged for the second time that day to see that huge cake.

"SHIT!"

Muteki giggled hearing his mom swear, but since it was her birthday, he let it pass.

"That is one BIG cake!" She squealed. She hugged Inuyasha and Sango sighed in admiration. "Kawaii!" She squealed.

"The best," he smirked as Kitty, the maid brought a knife.

Miroku was video taping as Kagome cut the cake and fed little pieces to her mother, fiancé, son and soon-to-be-in-laws.

… PRESENT TIME!

Inuyasha and Sesshomaru brought all the presents in the middle of the room as Sango cranked up the volume of the stereo.

"Alright," Kagome smiled as she picked up Muteki and Riku's present. They got her one candy necklace each and Kagome put them on right away, before giving Muteki and Riku a hug each.

Second give she opened was Sesshomaru's. He got her silver cutlery as a present. Kagome squealed a she hugged him.

After swimming through many presents, she landed on her fiancé's. She opened the box and smiled as she saw a picture frame inside. She flipped it over to find a 5year old Kagome building a sand castle and a 7 year old Inuyasha coming up behind her with a cape tied behind his neck.

"Oh god." Kagome said, her breath catching in her throat. "Thank you so much." She said as she gave him an extra tight hug. Inuyasha smiled as she placed the picture daintily on the table.

At the bottom of the pile was a black box wrapped in clear paper.

"It came in the mail, no return address." Inuyasha said.

Kagome frowned as she opened the black give… she gasped as she opened the small velvet box.

Sitting in the box was the engagement ring that Naraku had given her… and with it, a note.

Only a matter of time before the roses bloom.
Only a matter of time before the birds sings a tune.
If not today, then certainly tomorrow.
Kagome and Naraku
Together, through happiness and sorrow.
